I would say yes, with a capital "Hell yeah". I went down the list and they all track. Particularly the lack of empathy and envy, given the accusations that the cancer-stricken woman was making up her illness. It wasn't just that she was vicious and mean, but I think she was also jealous that somebody had a more tragic story than she did. Also in her mind, the story couldn't possibly be true becauase hers were all b.s. and here was one that was even more wrenching.
But I am so sorry you had to deal with anyone like this. I know you've alluded to it before, but I hope it's all done with now. It's amazing how the internet can be the greatest place for meeting people, and yet there's always the nut-jobs that come in and manage to make so many people miserable.
At least in this case, a few people were paying attention and she wasn't quite as smart as she thought she was, so they could nail her eventually. It's awful that it took so long though.
